Ours.
Ours perhaps was never love
of the kind that requires proof,
fervour which naught can drown,
the passion that willingly lays down
itself for other's approval, no our own
was something written in a lighter tone.
Ours the keenness of separates
welcoming times of being together,
valuing comfort from touch of hands
when hurts demanded understanding,
yes ours was desire for friendly concord
with choices honoured by harmony's law.
Yet love was there, it grew
with care of each for each,
so in losing you, death too,
of a sort, took life from me.

Good to know the poem moved you Dan - - - many thanks for your visit and read.
this is a captivating, beautiful tho incredibly sad and wholly relatable bit of poetry that really does pack a hefty punch at the very end ...... N

A & B Here (together again !) HI FAY (as the SONG says) LOVE is a many splendoured thing. Angela & I have a lot in common also much that separates us ! Even in the Spiritual Dimension She loves the pomp & ceremony of Catholic Cathedrals but she is happy to be married in the minimalism of OUR Evangelical Church where she is now a MEMBER. However we are having a Post Nuptual Blessing ~ by the BISHOP ~ in Seville Cathedral on our HONEYMOON ~ AMEN We are still in early glow of our Romance and Your final couplet scared us ! Even during this week ~ when we are getting back on track as ONE ~ we cannot imagine a life without each other ~ AMEN !
Peace & Joy & Love
BRIAN & ANGELA
